I know George (geo26e) has one of these posted, but had to brag on this one. You just gotta love when you put an opening bid on Ebay, that's less than 1/5 of the low end book value and nobody else bids.This pocket watch is one of the earliest "Character" watch produced by Ingraham. It's all there minus the second hand(got several spares) and the bow(got a couple of those too). This one is also one of the first models made according to the date code, February of 1935.
Thanks for looking and hope you enjoyed seeing this one. Check out George's posting, I'll leave the link in comments for easy clicks.
